And our mystery reader was.....
MR. STEVE, our school's custodian!
Mr. Steve read "Oh the Thinks You can Think" by Dr. Seuss.
Think about Kindergarteners, reading with a friend!
After practice the stories "The Attic" and "Get It", I let the kids choose their own partners (which can sometimes be scary!) and they took turns reading their books to each other. Those that remembered also got to read to their "Stuffed Friends" that they brought to school.
This was the first time I've turned them loose to read independently, and it was music to my ears! The children were all reading quietly or listening very politely to their partners. I told them that if they came to a word they didn't know to ask their partner first. They worked together so well :)
Think About Music!
Stuart Stott's came to perform for us on Thursday! He taught us many of the children's songs that he has written. He had the kids and the grown-ups laughing, singing, and moving to the music.
Think about snacks!
After Stuart Stotts' performance, children and their families enjoyed a nutritious "Cat in the Hat Fruit Kabob" that they made all by themselves!
What a fun week it has been!
